My mother's HOME!

She had a follow up appt. with her surgeon and she asked if she could go home and he said yes! The last time she actually stepped foot into her own home was in February. Since then, she's been in Skilled Nursing Facilities....some of them not so skilled!

She has a long road ahead of her and my parents still need a lot of help, but her spirits are high and I believe that her good attitude will help her through.

It's been tough (and going to be tough) for me because I'll be spending half of my time with them. But I'll hang in there, too. It's so good to see her home.

That's great. It's hard taking care of our parents as they age, but we do it gladly for all they've done for us. Make sure you take care of yourself. Don't put your needs on the back burner. Good luck with the home care.
